Mathematicians And Their Notation Fetish

Mathematicians And Their Notation Fetish

Mathematicians turning their noses up at peasant-level notation! The top panel shows the disgust at writing multiplication as "a×b" or addition as "a+b" — how crude and explicit! But that bottom panel? Pure ecstasy at the elegant "ab" and "a/b" notation. Why waste precious symbols when implicit is so much sexier? It's like mathematicians get a dopamine hit every time they can remove a symbol and make their equations more cryptic to the uninitiated. Less is more... unless you're trying to understand what the heck they're talking about.
